Watercooler Chats, with Graham from Manifold

Ever wondered what it really takes to become an expert? Malcolm Gladwell says it's 10,000 hours, but we think it's more about the small, overlooked moments that fill those hours.

Introducing our latest series, Watercooler Chats, where we peel back the curtain on office life with people who spend their days making the world a little more interesting. No fluff, just the real stories behind the titles.

Meet Graham, the man behind the smooth operation of Manifold, a community-driven coworking space located in Ngāmotu, New Plymouth.

When he's not making sure the coffee's strong and the loo is well-stocked, he's orchestrating the atmosphere of a fresh alternative to the traditional, uninspiring office space.
